Ummm,that would be a GOOD thing.

Nothing is lost by actually thinking BEFORE you bomb anothe rnation and start another war.

A lot can be lost by rushing into one.

A true right field Conservative? No, you would be very misinformed!


Middle of the road Progressive Neocon Republican(Bush, McCain, Graham, Boehner...), yes. But they are not totally on the right. They are firmly in the middle.
Middle of the road, will get you run over in the repaving project.

There are jobs out there, just too many Americans think they are too good to get their hands dirty or the pay offered is beneath their station........

The jobs disappeared why? Because people overseas work for less than what the unions demand here in America.

Americanhaters? don't think so....

Slowly but surely this has become a world economy, unfortunately America had it's head up it's ass while it was occurring........

The real answer is to have the 99 weekers fight Obama's unfunded war in Libya, 2 birds with 1 stone.

Yeah, too bad they didn't think when they had the chance, too little too late

Smart or dumb the two-party system we're saddled with gives little choice, both sides sold their souls to special interests long ago. I truly believe the two-party system will be the death of America, it's so deeply entrenched the chances of change aren't all that great.

Interesting....so not supporting the newest war doesn't matter.

What of those on the left who DO support the newest war because THEIR guy started it?
DO you hold them to the same standard?

We aren't saddled with a two party system,except by our own ignorance and cowardice.

Your hatred of President Obama has no bounds. Where did it manifest? After reading some of your prolific posts, I'm curious: Did you support Bush, who had zero reason to attack Iraq? Did you support Bush's decision to completely ignore the UN investigators when they asked for more time to continue and search for WMD?

Do you consider yourself a patriot or anti-American?
